‘Lion King’ Roars at the Box Office

Despite bad reviews from the critics, The Lion King roared at the box to the sound of $185 million. The movie surpassed all expectations and is now the 9th highest grossing film. The Lion King now has the largest July opening for a PG movie. Critics hated the movie so much that it received a 55% on Rotten Tomatoes. One of the complaints is that the lions do not have any facial expressions. In the cartoon version they were very expressive.
